✦ AI summary

Deep Below is an atmospheric survival horror game with stylish visuals and engaging resource management that creates genuine tension and dread in its underground setting. However, players consistently report significant issues with buggy gameplay that can prevent progression, repetitive quest design, and optimization problems that detract from the experience. Most players suggest avoiding the game due to these technical issues and design flaws.

Игра «Deep Below» — это атмосферный хоррор с элементами выживания, где игрок исследует подземелья, полные опасностей и тайн. Графика стильная, с удачным сочетанием темных тонов и детализированных текстур. Геймплей захватывающий: нужно собирать ресурсы, строить лагерь и бороться с монстрами. Управление интуитивно, но сложность возникает в балансе между исследованием и выживанием. Сюжет скрыт, но атмосфера напряжения и тревоги создана отлично. Однако повторяемость заданий и нестабильная оптимизация могут наскучить. Рекомендую для любителей жанра с любовью к атмосфере.

This game has introduced me to steam, 11/10, without it i most likely wouldn't have made friends because if not for Steam i wouldn't have said "hey, do you have Steam?" to that one dude in 2016

For everyone who don't know how to start the game.. You have to press E on book and E again to start... shift is for sprining... If you are soo enthusiast to still try this game, you shouldn't... it's buggy and once you stuck... you can't progress anymore

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.

Tormented Souls price: a horror game that stopped moving

The Tormented Souls price has not budged in six weeks of our readings. What that means for buying it, and whether the 2025 sequel is the better purchase instead.

Control Resonant sale: the price band broke this week

The first Control Resonant sale since launch landed on 2 November. Our 36 readings before it never left an eight per cent band, which says something about waiting.
